Looks – Ultra Black Smoky Eye, Easy Smoky Eye
Posted On: 01/12/08
Posted in: Black, Looks, Smokey
I felt like doing a super dark eye, which I didn’t execute as well as I would have liked, but it’s just something so dramatic and fun, I couldn’t resist not taking photos!
I used Blacktrack fluidline all over lid, Carbon eyeshadow all over lid, Vex eyeshadow above crease and on brow, Feline kohl power on lower lash line, and Pink Opal pigment on lower lash line. I wore Don’t Be Shy blush with Sculpt sculpting powder to contour and Micro Pink beauty powder to highlight. I had Strawberry Blonde lipstick with Lull lipglass.

Love the Catwoman snarl at the end! Too cute!

LOL! Thanks, Rebekah! I thought I’d throw in a silly one ;)
Saturday, January 12, 2008
ooo, you look so cool. you’re like from a matrix movie. that pink opal pigment makes a difference even just at the lower lash line. kind of makes it a nice feminine smokey eye instead of the basic black and white bold strong smokey eye.
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thank you! Haha! Yes, it’s amazing what a little whitish coloring can do to the look. Sometimes I use Shell CCB, which is pretty silvery white, and it’s nice, too.
Saturday, January 12, 2008
You are so beautiful with this dramatic look.
Well done Christine!

Sunday, January 13, 2008

*laughs at the last picture* Grrrrrr eh?
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Something like that, lol ;)
Saturday, January 12, 2008
Hi Christine! I notice you use the Sculpt and Shape all the time. What is this for? I looked it up on the MAC website to understand what it does and can’t quite get it. Where on your face do you use it? Maybe I should check it out. Thanks!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Hey Shefali! They’re to contour the face – I use it to contour my cheeks and make them stand out a bit more :) There’s a tutorial on how to use them in the Tutorial – Face section!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
I like the last pic hehe ;)

Saturday, January 12, 2008
Thats beautiful, I learned how to do smokey eyes from you! The fluidline does wonders.
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thanks, Ashlee! :D Fluidline is the BEST!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
You look lovely as always :) Very pretty shadow!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thank you so much, Stacey!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
BTW I see purple color umm in crease,did you use purple e/s or is that color be-coz of the blending? and if its eyeshadow what is the name? thanks
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Hey Moon! It’s because of the blending :) That’s Dark Edge eyeshadow!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thaaaanks
Saturday, January 12, 2008
ps.sorry for the stupid question :)
Sunday, January 13, 2008
No question is stupid, hun!!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
OMG. I LOVE THE COLOURS. my fave colour is purple and the black just compliments it. sexy chic and daring! aaaahhh J’ADORE CHRISTINE!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thanks, Hannika!! :D I adoreeee Vex with a smoky eye. I think I never use it unless it’s with black!
Saturday, January 12, 2008

is what I have for now, but I will try to update it with Vex sometime soon!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
OMG I must check out Strawberry Blonde lipstick with Lull lipglass next time I am at MAC. I adore the colors, so cute and pink :)
Sunday, January 13, 2008
If you can get them, you should, but Strawberry Blonde is pretty old and it was LE :( N3 is close, though, actually!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
SOO very pretty!! You look hot.
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thanks, Naomi!!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
I love smokey eyes. The possibilities are endless. I looks great on you. MAC´s Carbon e/s it´s one of the best in the market.
You look Rock-n-Roll Gorgeous! =D
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Me too, Beda! Carbon is one of my favorite shadows!
Thanks!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
beautiful!! i love all kinds of smokey eye but i never can find a really good black eye shadow … i got a few some more expensive some less and they all look bad on the eyelid i mean they are like kinda transparent and i cant use them too much cause then you know how it looks … anyway very beautiful make up, good job like always!!!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thanks, Camilla!! :) MAC Carbon is an amazing black, IMO!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
Love the last pic of you. Fierceness.
This is definently a look to try out for a night on the town.
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thanks, JackA! :D I thought I’d throw something different in for fun!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
black/grey looks and pink looks (like in the look before this one) really work great for you
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thank you, Bart :D
Saturday, January 12, 2008
can you recommend colors similar to don’t be shy, strawberry blonde, and lull that are a part of the permanent line/would work on darker skin like nc 35-37? I really like this look and would like to try and recreate it!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Well Dressed is similar to Don’t Be Shy. N3 from N is close to Strawberry Blonde, and Sweetie is similar, though a bit cooler. Lull, well, I can’t really think of a dupe for :(
Saturday, January 12, 2008
I think it was executed quite well Christine! And love the last photo, you silly girl you!!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thanks, Mrs. Lynne :D
Saturday, January 12, 2008
I really loved your smoked eyes! I´ll try to copy it =) I mean the whole look is beautiful, congrats! =)
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thank you so much :D I hope it works for you!!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
Love this look.
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thank you so much, Stephanie!!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
I love Pink Opal with this look! You look stunning :)
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thanks, Janis! I knew I had to use it somewhere for this look!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
So HOT!!! Love this Look!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thank youuuu Badkitty!!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
You are gorgeous? What is your ethnicity? Filipino…mixed with something Latin?? Just fyi…I am :) What kind of brush do you use to put eyeshadown on the lower eyelash area?
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thank you! I’m half Vietnamese, quarter German, and a quarter Swiss :)
I used the 219 for that!
Saturday, January 12, 2008
pure SEX!!
do you think a fair skinned girl like me (with cool undertones) could pull this look off?
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thank you!! Yes, I do, I really do :)
Saturday, January 12, 2008
Love the smoky eye – especially the light pinkish/purple effect of Vex on the brow and that lipstick looks great on you :)
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thanks, tonee!! :) I love the monochromatic smoky eye, but adding color is fun, too!
Saturday, January 12, 2008

Monday, January 14, 2008
Hey hun! Thank you so much :) Vex is a great duochrome, but I’m sure the Milani one is a great dupe!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
I’M SO IN LOVE. IT’S VERY SULTRY…. TUTORIAL PLEEEEEEASE!!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thank you! I will try :) For now, there is this one that is similar: http://www.temptalia.com/tutorial-black-smokey-eye.
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Oh my god, This look is gorgeous and you look so beautyful!!!
I love the smoky eye!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Thank you so much, Ross! You’re too kind!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
Best look ever!!! :-o i´m in love with it!! I´ll try to do the same look but i will use existencial paint with dark sould pigment and softwash grey piggie.
I love the lips, are Strawberry Blonde lipstick and Lull lipglass available right now? If they aren´t, which colours could replace them?
Thanks in advance
Monday, January 14, 2008
Thank you, Virginia!! I think it’ll turn out great with the products you listed!
They were both limited edition, so I doubt either are available (especially Strawberry Blonde). I would suggest Sweetie lipstick as a permanent color (though Strawberry Blonde is a warmer, brighter medium pink) with Decorative lustreglass. Lull is still available on the US MAC site, though.
Tuesday, January 15, 2008
Thank you so much honey
Sunday, January 13, 2008
strawberry blonde is similar to n3? now im even MORE EXCITED to get it lol! it’s coming tomorrroowwww the anticipation is killing me!!!
Monday, January 14, 2008
In Spain we don´t have The originals collection yet, so imaging how anxious i am!!
Monday, January 14, 2008
It’s close! Strawberry Blonde is a bit brighter with peachy undertones, but I think N3 is a good dupe for it, especially with how it looks in this particular look!
Sunday, January 13, 2008
very cute.
Monday, January 14, 2008
Thanks, Addicted_2color!
Monday, January 14, 2008
The Pink Opal pigment on your lower lashline adds just enough glam to this dark look. Great job!!
Monday, January 14, 2008
Thanks again, Ariele! I also loved what Pink Opal added to the look :) I’m so glad I remembered to put it!
Thursday, January 17, 2008
You look gorgeous, your eyes look amazing!!!! I feel this is one of your best looks!
Friday, January 18, 2008
Thank you so much!!
Thursday, January 24, 2008
This is my favourite look of yours ever, I really love it! The colours are beautiful.
Friday, January 25, 2008
Thanks so much Alex :D
Tuesday, January 29, 2008
i love the way this has a hint of pink… how would you use the pink opal pigment for a daytime look?
Wednesday, January 30, 2008
Thanks, Laura :) I’d use it all over the lid and use it with pinks or purples for the day time.
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
i tried these smoky eyes with hue lipstick and tenderling blusher … cant seem to find the dont be shy blush anywhere … tenderling is so nice with this look doe its nice or subtle … or even lillicent creme blush for a softer look.any other options for lips and cheeks for dis look????
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
Hey EMW! Hue lipstick is a great idea. You could try Well Dressed blush instead of Don’t Be Shy.
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
or underage lipglass mite be nice with it … hmmmm.
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
Yes, that’s not a bad idea, either. Really, any nude lip will work!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
Really waw!!!
Friday, February 15, 2008
Thanks, Tinneke!!
Thursday, February 14, 2008
Wow! That’s so hot! I do a similar look with Beauty Marked eyeshadow, but I like this one way more. Gorgeous!
Friday, February 15, 2008
Hey Lisa! :) Oh, I bet it’s really pretty with Beauty Marked!
Friday, February 15, 2008
you are so beautiful :)
Friday, February 15, 2008
Thank you, Ann!
Thursday, February 21, 2008
You’re making me want that Lipglass… I love pale pink against my dark skin!
Friday, February 22, 2008
It’s a great lipglass, Marsadie!
